TOR & the Deep Dark Web: Managing the Risks of Internet Anonymity

When faced with the challenge of identifying, understanding and mitigating network security risks, TOR and the Deep Dark Web present obstacles that are increasingly difficult to overcome. Created as a means of protecting the privacy and anonymity of its users, TOR - the managed network of private computers leveraged by criminal elements to minimize the risk of surveillance and capture - is being exploited by the most technically proficient, aggressive, and organized of criminal syndicates. TOR has emerged as a the network of choice in the Deep Dark Web for enabling illegal transactions involving weapons, drugs, stolen information, and is also often used as an anonymous communication channel for botnets advanced malware command and control (C&C).

Join this webinar by Norse to learn:

* What is TOR and the deep or "dark web?"
* The primary security and business risks they pose to organizations
* Strategies and countermeasures your organization can use to mitigate the risks

In an age where cybersecurity threats are an everyday fact of life, organizations are looking for solutions that enable them to predict, prepare and react to the shifting landscape of cyber threats, and implementation of adaptive cyber security strategies is becoming inevitable to achieve that goal.

Adaptive cyber security methods allow for the simultaneous defense of multiple attack surfaces against this new wave of advanced cyber attacks targeting businesses and services. The NIST Cybersecurity Framework enables organizations — regardless of size, degree of cybersecurity risk, or cybersecurity sophistication — to apply the principles and best practices of risk management to improving security. Attend this CPE webinar to gain insights on:

- Getting a clear picture of the current health of your organizations' defenses
- Defining your security road map using NIST CSF as a framework
- Conducting gap analysis and executing remediation actions
- Mapping the NIST CSF with security controls and built-in reporting templates that align with the framework.

Today’s organizations face a cybersecurity landscape more difficult to navigate than ever before. When it comes to data breaches, the risk for organizations is high, from the easily calculable costs of notification and business loss to the less tangible effects on a company's brand and customer loyalty. With large-scale data breaches continuing to make the headlines in 2018, organizations must be proactive, not reactive, in the face of looming cyber threats. Proactive threat intelligence can enable organizations to prevent breaches or compromises before they occur.

On this webinar our panel of experts will discuss some critical actions organisations can consider to prevent a data breach, and attendees will learn:

- Strategies you can implement now to help you protect against a breach.
- Best practices for gathering the intelligence to predict and prevent attacks.
- How to use threat intelligence to improve your organization’s security posture and reduce the risk of an attack.
- Steps to fortify your last line of defense.

No organization’s suite of business applications is static, especially for businesses that have committed to non-stop innovation. It is not uncommon for businesses to integrate only their high-impact applications with their existing identity and access management (IAM) systems. This can cause a huge surge in manual work, and oftentimes enterprises dedicate hundreds of human agents to manage accounts, adding more as new business applications are added. Enterprises can sidestep significant costs, increase efficiency, manage risk and deliver undiscovered value, by properly leveraging automation technologies across IAM systems.

Robotic process automation (RPA) is a powerful technology that harmonizes different systems across an organization’s environment, reduces human errors, provides 24/7 operations, and relieves employees from repetitive tasks so they can focus on more valuable activities. For example, data quality management in the risk and compliance processs has been a traditional pain area for many institutions, as it is very time consuming and manual. However, a cognitive RPA solution which combines machine learning capabilities can enable fast automated remediation of data quality issues, and the system can learn from the final decisions taken by the data analyst as well. Attend this CPE webinar for insights on:

- Getting started with an access management program.
- Evaluating the right configuration and system-based tools to automate processes at a task level, and align to your process automation strategy.
- Leveraging advanced analytics in risk management, compliance, and continuous monitoring programs.
- Embedding governance, risk management, and controls into your enterprise’s mobilization and deployment of RPA, so you can catch issues before they arise.
